I couldn't believe the torque steer & acceleration feeling I got tonight from my auto Max. The freakin intake was screaming! and the car was pulling like a turbocharged eclipse!

The outside temp was 20deg. Man the car pulled so nice! Even on the highway it was seriously kicking! I guess the intake can really take advantage of the cold air. I bet it would kick some A$$ at the track in this weather!

Kloogy - you don't know what your missing, man!

True! To maximize the experience catch a adrenaline rush at around 3-4:00 am or when the air is that cool with a little moisture. I made a helluva screech one nite coming home around 3:20am.

Yeah, I've noticed the same thing...with the temp basically 40 to 50 degrees daily. I can't believe how much power there is...I also can't believe how much power loss there is during the summer, especially with the intake. Gonna have to get a heat shield or something!

Hey 02MaXiMa_GLE, can you imagine at -25 Celcius, well that's the kind of weather we got these day over here. It's freakin cold but so fun.

Yeah, and if you take Maxima to the North Pole you can beat Corvette

 

NOT

 

Oh yeah, doublea... I can imagine. I was there in Toronto (the big T-O) Spring 2001 & New years 2000! It was sooooo damn cold at night! And snow everywhere! Good thing I had my stupid 4x4 Blazer back then.

Totally agree man. My SE has been pulling hard with these sub-freezing temperatures in NJ. The only caveat is the frigging torque steer has me nervous now. My first mod may be an LSD afterall.

Peace.

 

my car pulls a lot harder to at 20 deg weather. but the engine is loud at idle. does anyone get this too? it wasn't as loud in the summer. but since it got colder, the engine starts to get loud. i hope its a good thing!!!

 

I am going to wrap ice packs around my Injen intake when Summer comes around

 

yea i noticed the power increase a too........check out my latest gtech times post.

 

Yeah mine is louder and rougher at idle as well.
